comments:

Further progress depends on strengthening legal framework depends on political commitment of the government and the social partners to take on this work through tripartite discussion, including provision of budgetary allocation. National OSH profile and policy were drafted, then finalized based on consultations with the social partners. However, an action plan/strategy for implementing the policy and reforming the situation in line with the relevant ILS still needs to be developed.

action_plan:

Follow up actions on outputs produced under both UNICEF-funded projects and RBSA-funded interventions, such as strengthening legal framework are included as part of deliverables for target CPO of Syria (SYR103).

title:

Consider strengthening the enabling environment as a component of a future project in Syria, particularly strengthening the legal framework and completing the policy work from these projects (Draft National Action Plan on Combatting Child Labour in Syria, Draft National OSH Profile and Policy). For example, ILO could consider provision of technical advice to develop Syrian child labour laws, such as legislation restricting employment of children below a certain age in line with international labour standards, or regulations banning enterprises in the formal and informal sectors from employing children with sanctions that can be enforced.
